I'm going to train a climbing rose up a pergola (Zephirine Drouhin). It's all lawn up to the pergola. There is a smallish hole holding some inadequately performing clematis, which are going. I think I should make the hole bigger, and dig in some organic matter.
how big an open space can I get away with? how much turf must I remove?
I will leave it open for a few days so the blackbirds can peck away at any leatherjackets. Any other tips for planting a climber amongst lawn?
